# Knowledge Base Research Skill

This skill provides access to a curated knowledge base containing research on audio DSP, acoustics, AI/ML, and software development.

## When to Use

- Before implementing complex algorithms (reverb, FFT, convolution)
- When debugging unfamiliar errors
- For design patterns and best practices
- To find solutions from past conversations
- When researching scientific concepts

## Knowledge Base Access

```
URL: http://localhost:8000/sql
Auth: Basic cm9vdDpyb290 (root:root)
Headers: surreal-ns: research, surreal-db: knowledge
```

## Quick Queries

### Full-Text Search
```sql
SELECT title, content, source, url FROM knowledge 
WHERE title @@ 'keyword' OR content @@ 'keyword' LIMIT 10;
```

### Find Algorithms
```sql
SELECT name, description, success_rate, implementation_notes 
FROM algorithm WHERE name CONTAINS 'reverb';
```

### Search Past Solutions
```sql
SELECT user_text, assistant_text FROM chat_message 
WHERE assistant_text @@ 'solution keyword' LIMIT 5;
```

### Paper Research
```sql
SELECT cite_key, title, authors, abstract FROM paper 
WHERE abstract @@ 'acoustic simulation';
```
